I found that in Postresql 9.0.3 documentation:

/It is also possible to use B-tree indexes for ILIKE and ~*, but only if the pattern starts with non-alphabetic characters, i.e., characters that are not affected by upper/lower case conversion.

/Can anyone please tell me how to configure that?/

hmm? nothing to configure. its a special case thats really not very useful.

    WHERE something ILIKE '432432$#@$#%'

would use a index on something, since there's no characters in there subject to case shifting.

ditto...

WHERE something ~* '^42432$@#$#@' (where ^ anchors the string to match starting from the first char)
